A chef has created an aphrodisiac Valentine's Day culinary treat made from bull testicles.

Charlie Bigham is promoting his cock and bull pie as an alternative to asparagus and oysters and other traditional romantic food.

'Ever since 1996 I've been making my delicious food with all the care that you would if you had the time. After all, there's (almost) no better way to get together than over a delicious, freshly prepared meal,' Mr Bigham said.

The cooking instructions for the pie encourage people to 'turn off the phone, light those candles [and] slip into something more comfortable'.

'Tonight is for lovers, and Charlie's smoothed the way with this very special aphrodisiac pie that will get you in the mood this Valentine's,' the pie's maker claims. 'So relax and let nature take its course.'

Bull testicles are said to be full of 'sexually stimulating ingredients' and have a long history of being used in Chinese traditional medicine for that purpose.

The pie, which also contains ginseng and Mama Juana liquor, is being sold by Ocado.com from Saturday, although the online retailer has already warned of 'very limited availability'.
